Timing is the treatment.
The HeadStart Smartwatch
HeadStart monitors physiological signals that change minutes to hours before migraine pain begins. By analyzing smartwatch photoplethysmography (PPG) data and personal triggers, HeadStart delivers early, personalized migraine risk alerts so users can act at the right time.

Personalized to Every Migraine
HeadStart learns how migraines uniquely present in each individual. By combining continuous physiological data with user-reported triggers, aura patterns, sleep, stress, weather sensitivity, and medication response, the system builds a personalized migraine profile rather than relying on population averages.
Early Prediction Before Symptoms Appear
Migraines are preceded by measurable physiological changes minutes to hours before pain begins. HeadStart detects these early warning signals using smartwatch photoplethysmography data and translates them into pre-symptom migraine risk forecasts. This early insight gives users time to act within the optimal treatment window, before symptoms escalate and disrupt daily life.
Compatible and Flexible
HeadStart is built primarily as a software platform, allowing users to connect compatible smartwatches they already use. For those without a compatible device, HeadStart offers an affordable proprietary wearable designed specifically for reliable physiological monitoring. This dual-access model lowers cost barriers while enabling continuous, real-world use.
